Day 26:

Road Trip home, this time WITH Jeffer (woo hoo). We stopped in the famous Cabazon to get the oh-so delicious Banana-Date Shake. Holy Yum, batman...I know some of you put it off when you're drivin' by..but, really...stop next time. So good. Max was diggin' it too, as you can see. Day 27:

Beach Beach Beach...Steve and Becky and their girls came from AZ yesterday to party at the beach for 2 days...so, we partied right along with them...don't have pictures yet, but I'll post them here when I get 'em! Ivy touched the waves for the first time...and I attempted the beach for the first time without Jeff...still had family to help, which was awesome, but I was a brave little toaster, and Max was fabulous!

Day 28:

South Coast Plaza Disney Store had a Super Sleuth Honey Pot Hunt (like on playhouse disney). Max was put on a hunt for the honey pots that were hidden throughout the store, and after he found them all and identified what was in each pot,

he was given this: certificate of honorary super-sleuth-dom. so fun. We even got to take the mask home. hee hee. I had to wear it around the store, because Max didn't want to at first.

Day 29:

played hookie from church because Max and mommy were sick...grrr. But, we had Rodney over for dinner, and while I was cooking, Max played Dunkin' Ducks in the sink next to me. He was soaked by the time dinner was ready, but he was occupied for about 30 minutes. (squirting floaty ducks around in a couple inches of water with a squirt bottle. (anybody recognize the squirt bottle? hee hee...bragging rights to anyone who guesses what it is.)

Day 30:

Tanaka Farms! We were planning on taking Grandma to this a couple of weeks ago, but weren't able to go, so we went today! the Watermelon Tour was sooo fun! We went with Amanda, Kali and Tatum. We got to ride on a tractor and sample fresh fruits and veggies right off the plant. Carrots, onions, corn, string beans, Honey Orange Melons, cucumbers (two kinds) tomatoes, zucchini and watermelon...

The corn was AMAZING...tasted just like candy, loved the onions(weird) and Max totally loved the carrots...

the brood on the tractor ride...

Amanda and her cute girls then we got to walk around the watermelon patch and choose our own watermelon to bring home...the one we had there was soooo good, I'm anxious to see it Max likes the one he picked! Such a fun day!
